Yes, that seems very much along the lines I’m setting out!
I think part of where my take goes a level deeper is pointing out that you’re probably selective in which perspectives you seek out. There are probably some you wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole. Others that you would, but in secret, because your primary trust-networks would find them dangerous. And some that are in that sweet spot of being foreign enough to be novel for your trust-network, but also friendly enough to be accepted. It’s this latter category that I’m suggesting is most valuable to find, in the spirit of reconciling factionalism to move toward truth.
